        It looks great, @wiseowl. Good luck with the turf laying, but please take care of yourself. Mrs Woo will not be impressed if you hurt yourself :doh:.

            Take it steady, @wiseowl ! I had to carry a similar quantity of turf over a similar distance last spring - from the road, up two flights of stone steps and through the house - and it was knackering work. Make sure to have pleanty of tea breaks!

              Good morning @2nd_bassoon and thank you my friend, yes I will try but sometimes I forget that I am no longer a youngster,but I will remember this time(I promise),as a couple of years ago I forgot and when I woke up the next morning I couldn't move and that lasted a week or more:smile:

                Hi @luciusmaximus I don't know much about Pickeral Rush my apologies, but it might be beneficial if you put another post in the water Gardening section it might get more views my friend,just a respectful suggestion;):smile:
